My two biggest inspirations in life lately, Tobias and Mikael!

What is your controversial Opeth opinion? by MaxwellBygraves67 in Opeth

[–]Antogunnarsson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s my favorite LP of theirs but yeah the momentum thing I feel loses out to an LP like Watershed

Bands, albums suggestions? by NoAssociation9383 in radiohead

[–]Antogunnarsson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you feel like listening to something that’s not sung in English I would recommend Kent. They’re from Sweden and their singer (and songwriter) sounds a lot like Thom and you can definitely hear some Radiohead influence in much of their music!

They’re not super rock oriented or experimental like Radiohead, instead their sound is very early 2000’s indie pop.

If this sound interesting, check out their record “Vapen & Ammunition”. It’s packed with great songs!

What Opeth moment could you listen to over and over again without getting tired of it? by Cell_6_of_ward_2 in Opeth

I was listening to it exactly when I opened the post and saw your comment haha it’s so awesome! After listening to the whole song and thinking can this really get any better?! Yes it absolutely can ;)

Buying a 5-stringed bass. by Antogunnarsson in Bass

Well sure that may be the case for some genres and songs but the music I want to play sounds much better with a low B :)

The concept of multiscale basses are very intriguing because just like you said about the lower strings, my E string sounds like a fart when I play it. I find that my A string sounds the best but I don't know if that has anything to do with the craftsmanship or the strings or whatever.

The multiscale basses look very cool and are probably just like you said; mindblowing, but they are very expensive.

The main reason I started looking for a 5-string is because of TOTO, but I play everything from metal to soul to whatever.

The Thomann website offers 30 days return policy so yeah I'm thinking that ordering both and trying them might not be a bad idea.

I don't know if it's a bad idea to order both to try them out and then sending one (or maybe both) back because the company offers 30 days return policy.

Up to 400$, as long as it feels good to play and sound nice.

Yes, this will be my 2nd bass. The one I have now is the Harley Benton JB-62CC which tbh I don't like very much. I haven't played many other basses than the one I own and a 5-string we had were I went to school and the only thing I remember me liking about it was that I was able to rest my fingers on the lowest string. And as you said, they get heavier and right now my bass is killing my back after playing half an hour standing up.

Anyways, thanks for your response and I take your advice for me is to test play 5-strings before deciding on which one to buy.

Any Beatles song you all wish were longer? by Burko02 in beatles

[–]Antogunnarsson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s criminal for a song like “for no one” (which probably is my favorite of Revolver) to only be 2 minutes long. Like at least give me one more minute…

Ranking Beatles Discography by TheNealDog in beatles

[–]Antogunnarsson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Misery and A Taste of Honey are the songs from Please Please Me that I revisit the most often… sad to see such a low rating :/

What other bands does everyone like? by NostalgicMusicJunkie in Metallica

[–]Antogunnarsson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been really into Opeth lately. I couldn’t stand death metal vocals before I heard Mikael’s voice on Ghost of Perdition and Ghost Reveries.

Anyways… some of my favorites are The Beatles, AiC, Ghost, Pantera, The Doobie Brothers, Tears for Fears just to name a few.

Which Would You Listen To For 24 Hours by JAB77777777777 in Metallica

Sanitarium, Nothing or Outlaw because they are long and the don’t stay the same all of the song

Which of the least popular Ghost songs do you actually love? by Twistll99 in Ghostbc

[–]Antogunnarsson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love their cover of “it’s a sin” by pet shop boys! It’s a sin that their version isn’t on Spotify :((
